i don't see much benefit to public shaming (regardless of what i may or may not have said before )

for many, the opinion of the public has no influence on their behavior

for some, the pile-on of disapproval (and abuse) can be devastating and may lead to suicide

i just don't see someone like the woman in your picture saying "oh hey - all these strangers on facebook think i'm a terrible person. I should clean up my act"

Youve never been ashamed of something you were caught in the act doing and that shame kept you from repeating the behavior? I could have sworn that is one of the ways our conscience works, and conviction works, 12 step programs work, etc..

A lot of women like that one in the picture, wake up to what they are doing to their children and lends to the desire to walk in integrity for not just their sake but others.

Then you are totally sensitive to not letting someone know their in sin, like a homosexual, because you dont want to be cause of them committing suicide, and would better let them believe their behavior is ok, even though their lifestyle is not only devestating for themselves but for others, right?

The lack of disapproval is why unrepentant sin runs rampant in society today.

I don't like you because you are a manipulator who masquerades the subtle misandry you deny you have as mere criticism. As soon as criticism comes to women, you try to all of a sudden bring up platitudes and throw everyone into it. In the thread on consent, you and Tam's arguments backfired completely and that's exactly what you both resorted to.

You simply rely on foolish men to come to your aide, and wouldn't stand knee high to an ant without them in any subject pertaining to feminist ideology. If anyone cries like a baby, it's the infantilized women such as yourself who were the ones to get loud with me and gather the attention of your cronies in the first place.

When did i ever lead you to believe that i cared what you think about me personally? You are who opened the door for me to correct you on why " i dont like you" when you stated it. Ive never asked for your opinion on me in any way.

Abuse is not what we are discussing.

we're discussing public shaming, which, afaik, occurs through digital media, facebook and twitter being the most obvious examples

and there's no apparent control of the abuse that inevitably occurs

if you were referring to some other form of public shaming, feel free to elucidate

Seriously, why don't you just copy 'n' paste this crap? You effectively post the same tedious, adolescent precocious "I hate women" yak droppings over and over anyway...

Then perhaps you need to change how you talk to different people on here. Are you showing some people disaproval here, or trying to cause them to commit suicide since you believe public shaming to be abuse, perhaps you should get on your knees before God and sort it out.
